One detained at Ukiah Best Western

Law enforcement officers surrounded the Best Western motel in Ukiah Wednesday afternoon and at least one suspect was arrested, but it has yet to be confirmed if the incident was related to the search for a man suspected of shooting at a Mendocino County Sheriff's Deputy Monday night.

Nearby businesses and officers were evacuated as MCSO deputies, California Highway Patrol officers and other law enforcement personnel surrounded the motel at 555 South Orchard Avenue. S. Orchard Ave. was closed to traffic between East Gobbi Street and Kings Court while the motel was searched.

A woman was seen being led away in handcuffs by a MCSO deputy, but law enforcement have yet to reveal who the woman was. Shortly after 5 p.m., MCSO Sheriff Tom Allman confirmed that deputies were in a standoff with an armed suspect, but would not reveal who the suspect was.
